Dear DuMuX,

I am pleased to announce that we prepare a 2.4 release of DuMuX.
Consider following dates in your development / commit strategy:

== Soft feature freeze: 27. Sep 2013 ==
- All major changes that should be included and are not yet commited
should be announced. Add comment to FS#204 describing the feature and
areas affected by the change.
- Major changes not announced will be rejected after the soft freeze.
- Reports from the management representatives about remaining tasks.

== Hard feature freeze: 09. Oct 2013 ==
- All major changes must be committed before the hard feature freeze.
- Invasive fixes which might break other code are only accepted after
consultation with the release manager, small fixes are ok.
- Try to get your bugs fixed, your tests included and your documentation 
written before the hard feature freeze.
- Final reports from the management representatives what is finished and 
what must be dropped.

== Final testing: 14. Oct 2013 ==
- No commits are allowed except these which are done by the release
manager or which are explicitly authorization by the release manager.
- Release candidate packages will be provided.
- Tests on the various systems, compilers, with different settings are run.

== DuMuX 2.4 release: 18. Oct 2013 ==
- celebrate, Holger will bring something to drink?

All commits violating this plan will be reverted without further comment...

Looking forward to a good release,
Alex
(Release manager DuMuX 2.4)
